real world….

Turnigy 3549/4 1100Kv, 80 amp speed controller, 2200mah 3s Eflite battery, 9x5 3 blade prop.

5 minutes at 12000 rpm and we sucked down 820ma of juice from the battery. This is at about 3/4 throttle, I think I need a bigger prop. All in all though, not really sure how to interpret these results. This makes me think I could likely get a 10 minute flight out of a 2200mah battery fairly easily.
